The 8200 Israel’s Elite Cyber Group- WTC Spoofing

poofing, especially of radar, transponders, and communication signals, is a signature capability of Israel’s Unit 8200. Before and after 9/11, Unit 8200 was known for:

• GPS spoofing

• Radar signature mimicry

• Voice impersonation (COMINT spoofing)

• Cellular tower mimicry (IMSI catchers)

• Electronic signal injection

This type of advanced electronic warfare—not typically part of the NSA’s traditional surveillance toolkit—is highly specialized. On 9/11:

• FAA radar anomalies

• Disappearances and reappearances of aircraft on screens

• “Ghost” targets or duplicate blips

• Confusion between military exercises and real hijackings

…have all led some experts and whistleblowers to suggest radar or signal spoofing may have occurred.

If spoofing was involved in misleading FAA or NORAD responses, Unit 8200 would be one of the few with technical capability, motive, and non-attributable digital reach to do it—especially if they had access via compromised or cooperative U.S. telecom systems like Verizon.
